I don't see any MMA guys in the top 100.

I don't see any MMA guys in the top 100.

And yet the MMA stans keep on saying that boxing is dead. LOL

The Fertittas and Dana White are even worse than Bob Arum when it comes to paying fighters.

[ShoulderRoll]

The UFC is making a lot of money...but it's not going to the fighters that's for sure.

[ShoulderRoll]

Arum is probably envious of how the Fertittas pay MMA guys peanuts. Bet he'd love to do that with Pacquiao.

[Zarco]

I would think Vitali or Wladimir are on there. They make mega bucks in Europe.

wonder how long that will last tho. even tho the athletes arent getting paid much, the sport itself is getting a lot of viewers.

i rarely met any boxing fans, most of the youth seem to follow MMA.

[Capaedia]

For the record, Wlad is at #24.

Cotto at #75.

No Vitali though.

why does mayweather get paid so much? Im not a fan of his style and i wouldnt pay no 60.00$ to see him stink the place up. I hope guys like canelo, or chavez make money they truely deserve.
